Down and out kendo instructor Toraji can't even afford a new light bulb - let alone lunch, but discovering a prodigy like Tamaki might change his fortunes.
Toraji takes the team to a kendo supply to store to stock up on weapons and armor. Later, he gives the female members of the team color-coordinated code names!
A friendly text message convinces Sayako to rejoin the kendo team. She's excited to meet the new members, but that might change if Miyako ever takes her mask off.
Toraji tries to devise a strategy for winning the practice match, but all he can think of is sushi, so Tamaki teaches the team some basic kendo fundamentals.
Kirino gets a tip that Tamaki isn't the only kendo prodigy in school. If she can convince the new girl to join the team, it might save the sensei's job.
